A Retrospective Review of FloSeal Use in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

A Retrospective Review of FloSeal Use in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

The proposed study aims to objectively assess 2-year clinical and radiographic results for the rate of glenoid component loosening in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). This retrospective radiographic review will provide evidence for equivalence or superiority in curtailing loosening, a known complication in arthroplasty, when a hemostatic agent is utilized in conjunction with cement at the glenoid.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients must have completed at least 2 years follow-up following their total shoulder replacement
• Patients must have had radiographic imaging obtained at that 2 years

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients less than 21 years of age
• Patients who have been imprisoned since the time of surgery
• Patients who are mentally impaired
